Hon FRANK HURD, of Ohio, one of
the most sagacious observers of polit-
ical movements and decidedly one of
the best posted men in the country,
says, in answer to the question what
he thought of Cleveland, and Repub-
lican chances of presidential nomina-
ton:
Cleveland? I am pleased with his
administration in every particular.
He is man of ideas, and is not afraid
toadyocate them. He is unquestionably
the strongest possible Democratic can
didate. Ohio is strongly Cleveland in
Democratic sentiment No, / do not
consider Sherman's chances of nom
ination very promising. His friends
have manufactured little boom for
him just at present, but l regard it as
ephemeral. Ohio is pronouncedly
Blaine in Republican sentiment. There
is no sort of question regarding that
fact. The Blaine men are lying still
and allowing the Sherman boomers to
veil themselves hoarse, but by and by
they will rise up and drown out the
Sherman cry by large majority.

AN organization of colored men
temporarily residing in Washington,
but retaining legal residence in Vir,
ginia, and therefore entitled to vote
in that State, has been effected, and
resolutions have been adopted friend
" to the Democratic party in the
coming campaign over there One of
the resolutions recites that the aim of
the Democratic party is to obliterate
race prejudice and teach the colored
man the true worth and dignity of
American citizenship, while that of
the Republican party, through an irres-
ponsible committee, or, what is worse,
through the personal whims and am
bition of one man, would strike at all
that is dear to the freeman, be he
white or colored.
The movement promises to embar-
rass Malone in his fight this fall. 1t
is certain to spread and in the State
proper will have the covert sympathy,
if not indeed the active support, OF
ex-Congressman Brady and General
Wickham, and other less prominent
white Republicans who also are in
public revolt against Malone and his
methods.

THE mobilization of the French
troops, which has now been going on
for week past in Southern France,
appears to have been satisfactory, and
the Government feels naturally quite
elated over the results. Making due
allowance for possible exaggerations,
the French army must certainly be
in far better condition to-day than
it was at the outbreak of hostilities
in 1870, or even half dozen years
ago. The experiment has been keenly
watched, and, had it been even par
tial failure, it would quickly have
been heralded abroad. On the other
hand, the French Government would
have interested in suppressing any too
decided success These results will
not make France aggravatingly indie
pendent, but it will certainly give her
greater confidence in the efficiency of
the army. The French will not pro
woke war, but they'll meet it, and in
better shape than in 1870.

The campaign in Ohio would seem
to be approaching a crisis from the
attention the Associated Press is
paying to public meetings. Candidate
Powell gave the G. o. P. a turning
over on the stump and did such ex-
ecution that Governor Foraker was
called upon to respond. He returned
the compliments. These two men,
having sounded the key note, the
stumpers are all at work on either
side in full chorus. Senator Sherman
is silent and seems to be on a still
hunt for the Presidential nomination
and the scalp of the Plumbed Knight
who is still abroad but in cable COM
munication with his trusty ieutenants.
The theater of action in this contest
will be New York for its seventy-six
delegates. Sherman's friends claim
that he has the inside track on com
bine but this is doubtful unless Conk-
ling concludes to show his hand again
against his hereditary enemy.

THE sword presented to General
Nelson A. Miles by the people of
Arizona is declared by experts to be,
with one possible exception, the finest
gift of the kind ever received by an
officer of our army The hilt is of
white shark skin and gold, and is set
with huge anethist 1t is ornamented
also with an engraved portrait of
Chief Nachez.
The scabbard, which is of gold,
bears on one side a portrait of Geron-
imo, and a series of pictures of war
fare on the frontier. On the other
side is the inscription of presentation.
The Spanish blade is so perfectly
tempered that its point can be made,
by bending, almost to touch the hilt
The cost of the sword, although kept
strictly secret, is estimated by good
judges at not less than ten thousand
dollars.

EACH honest workman in his call
ing, no matter of what grade or class,
in doors or out, contributes his share
to the well being of the community
and the wealth of the country. Each
honest workman may lift his head in
pride that he is of the sovereignty of
the people, and each man of such men
may well contend for due representa-
ton of his order in halls of State. or
in legislative councils. There was
nothing Objectionable, therefore, but
all the contrary, in the convention
of Labor at Syracuse, New York, moth
ing wrong in the selection of self
asserting champion of labor as a
standard bearer of workingmen in the
contest for a high office in our gov
ernmental system; nothing inconsis-
tent with Labor's duty in according
to the chosen champion of convention
a Jealous advocacy in the campaign,
and an effective support at the ballot
box But then, if Labor has been de
ceived in ever so little a degree; If
workmen's sympathies have been
evoked in the supposititious interest
of the toiling masses to cover an adj
roit aid to the Anti-Labor Republican
party; if, in word, as broadly alleg-
ed, and to great extent satisfactorily
proved by the Syracuse platform, Mr..
George and his adherants have made
a deal with the olden enemy; if the
Labor vote lie to be bartered away

The great calamity at the theater
fire in Exeter, England, when consid-
cred in connection with the still great
er calamity of that class in Paris re-
Gently, and at Vienna a few years ago,
proves that some things are done no
better in Europe than thay are in the
United States. The loss of life at
Monday nights fire in England was
appalling, but it was probably but
little greater than would occur under
similar circumstances in the average
theater throughout Europe or this
country.

BEING asked at Denver who would
be the candidates in the next national
contest, Mr.. Voorhees,, declared that
Cleveland would be without opposi-
ton on the one hand and that Blaine
would be on the other if he wanted it,
but thought he had enough, in which
event Sherman would be the standard
bearer of the G. o. P. And that is
about the way it stands from the tes-
timony of those who are in position
to be best advised, and of these Mr..
Voorhees, is conspicuous.

THE Indianapolis Sentinel says Gov.
Hill, of New York, is recognized
throughout the country as a good
Democrat, but just now Governor Hill
is not in the race for the Democratic
nomination for President in 1888.
There is no installing the drift of
Democratic sentiment. Steadily, GER
tainly, without a reasonable doubt
that sentiment is growing in favor of
the denomination of Grover Cleveland.
The facts borne on every breeze, it
flashes on every wire. Republican
papers advise the Democratic party
that it is unwise to renominate Clev-
Gland, because he is the weaker man

THE Massachusetts Prohihitionis1

THE Massachusetts Prohibitionists
have held a very large and earnest
convention composed of no less than
eighty-fve delegates. The nomination
for Governor was the subject of a
spirited contest, which shows that the
aspirants were disposed to regard the
selection of the convention as some
thing more than an empty honor. The
collection of $4,000 during the session
indicates that there will be no lack of
means to carry on the campaign.
